《My Annoying Roommate | Hwang Hyunjin》4

She look so shocked as she saw me coming near her. She is probably the classmate that my teacher was talking about. The new girl. Akari.
Yzei greeted
I nodded
Yzei
Yzei just gave an awkward giggle and nodded while Akari is not even looking nor answering my question. Wasn't that clear? The question is for her.
Akari finally looked at me
I just nodded and entered the room. I sat on my designated seat and saw at the door that Yzei left quickly while Chan is talking to Akari. About what? It's not like Chan met her before and he is not that friendly to approach strangers first. The strangers approach him first.
Jisung whispered while looking at Akari
Jisung
Chan smiled at her and entered the room too. Then the teacher arrived and talked to Akari for a few minutes, they both entered the classroom while Akari stayed at the corner and our teacher went to the middle as she looked at all of us.
she asked and everyone answered yes in unison she told Akari
Akari bowed
Hyein asked
She rolled her eyes.
Akari smiled and bowed once again
Everyone gave her a clap except for me who knows her very well. Her family background is quite amazing. She came from a very rich family how come she is in a cheap priced place to stay? I wonder if she ran away or was kicked out of the house. Wait. If she ran away or was kicked out she won't be able to afford this school..
teacher said
Hyein raised her hand quickly
Hyein rolled her eyes again and glanced at Akari with a different expression this time. She is smiling widely as she welcomed Akari to sit beside her.
I can't believe this. My own sister acts like some saint in front of other people while act so annoyed in front of me. If I know, she will probably ask Akari to introduce her to any guys she knows which I won't allow. She can't have a boyfriend not unless she graduated and have her job.

the teacher said
Seungmin asked me
Changbin explained
teacher
Minho bowed
teacher told him
Minho went to his seat which is beside Akari.
________________________
It's finally our breaktime. I didn't go to the cafeteria right away. I waited for all the students to leave the classroom and stayed behind to talk to Akari.
Hyein rolled her eyes she hurriedly left the classroom
Akari
Akari chuckled
Akari rolled her eyes and left the classroom. How can she act like I am not important? Just wait and see. You'll know wo I am, Moon Akari.
I went to the cafeteria straight to my friends and saw them eating already. I started eating the food that Minho ordered for us. He won the bet yesterday and he promised to treat us today.
Felix
Chan
Seungmin chuckled that made them all laugh
I am not being overprotective just because that's the trend nowadays. I just want her to focus on the things she can enjoy before she enter a relationship. She is still young to have a boyfriend. Besides, we got into a fight back then for insisting to have a boyfriend. She hated it so she is not letting me know if she is dating someone. As far as I know, Felix likes Hyein which is not really good. I don't want to be in an awkward situation if ever they became a couple and broke up with the worse reason.
Changbin
Chan
Jeongin laughed
Jisung said while looking at their table
I saw Akari talking to someone on the phone with a smile on her face.
Unbelievable.

The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.
